    Introduction: Jeffrey Bader, an official of the U.S trade negotiation office, confirmed that China proposed to resolve the dispute over the obstacles to the export of U.S soybeans to China Chinese officials reportedly agreed to temporarily accept U.S soybeans, while at the same time setting up regulations to approve genetically modified products, provided the U.S government can confirm that the soybeans passed the U.S safety regulations Chinese officials made the proposal to Robert Zoellick, the US trade negotiator, during the APEC meeting in October Bader said that China has put forward a "constructive" proposal on the soybean trade dispute, but he said that the US must see the details of how the proposal works and whether it can actually solve the Sino US soybean trade dispute "It's one thing to take a proposal, and it's another to do it by customs and inspection officials We want to be sure of the latter " A source familiar with the industry told Reuters that Washington is submitting a safety certification to Beijing for genetically modified soybeans, which will pave the way for China to resume purchasing American oilseeds "We will check whether the U.S documents meet the requirements of China's genetically modified regulations," an official from China's Ministry of Agriculture said The official added that his office had not received any US documents In addition to the GM related proposals, due to China's recent strict quarantine on whether there are weeds and other pollutants in soybean cargo ships, some soybean cargo ships have been stranded in China's ports According to reports, Chinese officials told U.S officials that the measures had nothing to do with biotech regulations.
